I don't get other dogs in the yard but I do get foxes, she will sniff but isn't bothered.
Pippin is coming unglued at the seams…or so it seems..

Here he is in his daze…

DAP helped my household for "that time of the year" moods. It did NOT solve everything, but it did lower anxiety/whining
-
He sounds like he is physically uncomfortable. Could he be having an allergic reaction to something? Feel itchy? Hippo is going thru that right now. Part of his problem is rut, but part is that he is having an allergic reaction. But same thing, whining, pacing, staring…fun times...

This thread makes me so happy Oakley got neutered this past 1st of the month! Do neutered basenji males still experience these reactions?
-
In a word, they certainly can and do…. depends on the dog..... My OJ whinned the entire month of October from the time he was born till he passed over the rainbow bridge at 17+

Dolce is also in season, but thank goodness it is wearing her out so she has been sleeping a lot more than usual. I could get used to this!
-
I am having the same issue with Mojo. He has been so whiney lately, for about 2 weeks. Now he follows me all around the house- all day every day! He will jump up on me and start to chew my hands and arms, and then try to push my arm down. Our back yard is fenced in, so I put him outside until he calms down. He just turned 3. Is this normal behavior for mating season for male B.'s??

Kipawa was neutered on August 11th, and we are not seeing any unusual behaviors from him as the breeding season approaches. But he is still very young (1 year old). As for DAP, we tried all varieties of it - diffuser, spray and collar, when Kipawa was having too much excitement in the car, and it didn't work for that particular problem, though I am sure it could be useful in other situations.
-
I've also got a trip planned coming up (mid-October). I'm glad I'm not the only one dealing with odd behaviors. I was wondering why Kananga had been so grumpy after his naps recently, now it's all making sense. Completely forgot about this time of the year.

Last night was much better…he slept like a baby, I used the DAP spray I had left over (thanks kids for spilling it all out in the car..) on his beddding and I also got rescue remedy..he zonked out and I actually checked on him three times through the night thinking he had passed away..(stupid I guess..). He slept almost all day yesterday, I actually locked his crate up so he would not go back there and sleep...so he slept on the couch, the front porch and even out in the yard, next to my daugther while she was playing with molding clay...he eats like he has not seen food ever (something he never did, he is usually a very slower eater, chewing each morsel very well), he follows my every move and I joke if I stop to sudden his nose will be between my legs..as he is attached to me...literally..poor thing..oh and he has this look of confusion, more so than before..just glad he got a good nights sleep last night, hoping tonight will be similar..

My Ama -a very amicable and easy dog at other times always used to spend at least the whole of September refusing to come in after his last pee break at night. We used to have to forcibly bring him in.
My present males are not quite as bad but can be very temperamental at the breeding season aand I can't recall any other male I've had or fostered being any different neutered or no.

My neutered males and one of my spayed females are humping each other. The funny thing is it is usually boy on boy or girl on boy. They started doing this about two weeks ago. I had a spayed female about 9 years old who was a former commercial breeding dog who used to show Arnie how it should be done by humping him and then would flirt with him. I called Zippy a shameless hussy! Poor Arnie had never been bred and was neutered around 1 year old.

Poor guy…I'm glad Kratos is fixed so we don't have that exact problem... We have been dealing with him being deathly afraid of things at night the last 2 months, hope he feels better soon
